Our Trip To CES 2015 in Review

Now the CES is over, let me try to give you a glimpse inside the show.

A lot of new smart “Smart” devices were presented at the show. I was dazzled by everything from smart cars to smart beer kegs, and everything in between. The show to say the least was flashy! After all, there were thousands of booths with each of them trying to stand out and get your attention. The Intel booth itself was a good example of this with blue lights everywhere, dancing spider robots, and that 3D printer spider dress that matched them!

However there were other notable gadgets that were showy by their very nature.

Like this giant robot…

Or Toshiba’s Virtual Dressing room…

Or ChihiraAico – a communication android…

I also saw a lot of trends at the show. 4k TV’s were big at the show, which means television screens will be able display pictures that are 4 times as fine as 1080p. Another trend in television that was nearly ubiquitous was curved TV’s. Though curved televisions look interesting, I’m really not sure what benefits are gained from it.

There was also a lot of wearable technology. Most were gadgets to help with health and fitness. However there was a marked presence when it comes to “Smart glasses” that provide for augmented reality. What is augmented reality? In this case it’s technology that overlays your vision giving information on things you’re looking at. Many can also operate a lot like your smart phone would, keeping you up to date with events, make phone calls, etc… basically it can be used to make everyday tasks easier.

Another bit of wearable technology that caught my eye was Fasetto’s Link. It’s a wrist band that acts as wireless storage for your phone, desktop, or whatever. It’s not a tiny amount like flash drives though. With storage amounts up to 1 Tera-byte, it can compete with desktop hard drives.

It was also a big year for tablets. Around every corner was another vendor showing off their tablets. But I would say the best of the tablets with technology that’s usable on a day to day basis in real world setting was at the Intel booth!

They had a huge wacom tablet called the “Cintiq” for artists. A tablet with a built in projector which would be really great for meetings or even playing videos for all the kids where ever you happen to be. And of course the Real Sense equipped Dell Venue 8 7000 that allows you take pictures with depth. If you doubt the ability of tablets in general, I covered the CES using just a tablet. That includes the photography and the posts I wrote while at the show. I even managed to find the tablet I was using being shown at the Intel booth (Lenovo tab S8-50).

projectorWacom IMG_20150107_132938

For me, Intel Tablets were definitely the star of the show. It’s no wonders why Intel’s booth was chosen as the “Most Eye-Catching” booth according to “Find The Best” in Time magazine.

What do you think of everything we covered?!

You do not find a happy life. You make it. 

That’s the biggest lesson that grief has taught me. If I just wait around to be happy again, I’ll die sad. 

You don’t get through grief and come out the other side. That’s not how it works. You learn how to grow around it like a tree grows around a rock that’s in the way. You don’t wait for the rock to move. Cause it’s not gonna. 

Choose happy. And then make it happen.

Happy Valentine’s Day, @daeinexplains 🥰

The last 20 years with you have been my favorite years on this earth. ❤️ 

If I did anything right in my life, it was when I decided to give my heart to you.  You are my best friend, my soul mate, my better half, my rock, my everything. 

I love you.

Kids love helping if you just let them!💁🏼‍ Kids love helping if you just let them!💁🏼‍♀️

This little guy always asks to help when he sees me cleaning the house, washing the floors, doing laundry, or emptying the dishwasher. That’s what I love about Montessori parenting - it allows kids to do  big jobs and in turn makes them eager to help! 

He was over the moon when we gave him the @lovevery floor mop that actually works! He uses it daily now. The mopping pad is machine washable and you can refill the fluid container on it. I usually just do water and a drop of essential oils because he loves it when everything smells clean! 😜 

Definitely recommend! If you want to grab this mop for your little helper, it’s in the Storyteller Play Kit from Lovevery for 3 year olds. 

LlNK is in my bio to get FREE shipping! 💃🏼

Stop trying to fit your square self in a round hol Stop trying to fit your square self in a round hole. 

Sometimes we outgrown relationships. Sometimes we realize someone else isn’t a good influence on our lives. Sometimes we realize we aren’t a good influence for someone else. Sometimes we need to let things go that aren’t good for us in order to grow. And that’s ok. 

Stop trying to sit at a table you are no longer welcome at. Just be yourself, focus on God, love your family and friends, and the right people will gravitate to you. ✌🏻

It wasn’t hard to pick a new 4 slice toaster. As soon as I saw this one from @haden_usa I added it to my cart. I bought it from @lordandtaylor because it had the fastest shipping and I didn’t want to wait! 

No fancy electronics, screens, or extra features we don’t need. Just simple, straight forward functions and perfect results everytime. Plus it matches all my @cafeappliances too! 😂👍🏻

The “Steffi” in green are the perfect boots for ushering in spring weather with their delicious vintage leather and worn-in look right out of the box. I love the chunky lug soles and inside zippers to get them on and off easily. 

These are the boots you’ll want to wear again and again. And again.

Today was my due date for Dylan. Considering he w Today was my due date for Dylan.

Considering he was my 6th child, it's possible he would have been here by now. It’s been extra hard for me this week. 

Despite my best efforts to be strong and stay positive, I am completely brokenhearted. I’m just being honest. I could pretend I’m fine, but that doesn't do me or anyone else any good to be dishonest about the pain of miscarriage or the grief that comes with losing a child. 

My heart is completely shattered from having an empty womb and an empty nursery. An empty bassinet in the corner and unused tiny newborn outfits, all washed, folded, and ready… for nothing. 

It makes me physically sick to my stomach when I think about it all and I can't even fathom how I got here. How did I get here? 

This isn't how it's supposed to be! I should be holding a newborn right now! It’s so unfair. 

In an instant, my baby was gone and there was nothing I could do to change that. 

It doesn't matter how much time passes or what else happens in life, I will always miss him. My heart with always long for my baby. 

Those who haven't experienced loss tell you that "Don’t worry! Things will get better, just focus on the positive!" but people who actually know this grief and what it actually feels like to lose a baby, won’t tell you that. They know this hard road. They understand that unfortunately you don't just “get over it.” 

The grief doesn't just go away, even if you try to ignore it, it's still there. Like the sun. You don’t have to look at it to know it’s there. You can turn your back on it but it will still warm your skin. 

The grief from losing a child is unbearable. 
It is unpredictable.
It is unforgiving.
It is relentless.
It is all-consuming.
And it completely shatters you when you don’t expect it. 

You don’t get over it. You don’t forget. You simply learn to live with it. And I’m learning to live with it every day. 

It’s been 137 days I’ve had to live without my baby. 

Lord Jesus, please… hold me extra tight tonight.
